SNL2-E – Serial Network Link with Socket Interface
SNL2-E SINEC-L1 Gateway
The optimal solution for connection of SINEC-L1 networks and Ethernet networks of up to 100 Mbit/s.

The SNL2-E SINEC-L1 Gateway supports SINEC-L1 Master operation with broadcast and interrupt processing. The data of the connected SINEC-L1 Slaves can be accessed in a simple manner via the TCP/IP Socket Interface. Additional diagnosis details are available as well. The Gateway stores the developed configuration (polling and alarm list) in the flash memory, which is automatically loaded during start up.

Access via TCP/IP Socket Interface
The SNL2-E SINEC-L1 Gateway can be accessed via a TCP/IP Socket Interface by send and receive-calls. The Interface is operating system independent. On the PC or workstation, no driver needs to be installed, only a TCP/IP connection must be available.

Compared to solutions based on conventional PC communication boards, SNL2-E offers completely new aspects for the connection of PC-based systems:

• Hardware/driver installation with its typical problems is bypassed
• Access to the SINEC-L1 interface is possible from every PC in the network
• Trouble-free integration of lower automation levels into the control and design level
